Bridges Warns Knicks Not to Rest on Laurels

Mikal Bridges knows what it’s like to lead a team up two games to none only to watch it all crumble — and he’s bringing that hard-earned wisdom to the New York Knicks this time around. Five years ago, his Suns were swept after a 2-0 lead; now, with the Knicks holding the same precarious advantage, Bridges is reminding his teammates to stay grounded, stay hungry, and never forget how quickly momentum can vanish. He’s been vocal, even sharing his past pain with Jalen Brunson and Josh Hart, warning against complacency after their own shocking Eastern Conference finals collapse. Bridges is playing at a high level himself — 20 points, 6 rebounds, 6 assists in Game Two — and he’s pushing his team to keep that same desperate fire alive. With a franchise-record 13 straight playoff wins and a mindset that treats every game like the first, the Knicks are proving they’re built for this moment — and Bridges is making sure they don’t blink.
